چکیده
We first summarize the path integral formulation by Veach [Veach 1998]. Using the path integral formulation, light transport simulation can be expressed as: Ij = Ω fj (¯ x)dµ(¯ x), (1) where j is an index to the pixel (or measurement), fj is the measurement contribution function, µ is a measure of paths, and Ω is the set of transport paths of all lengths. We evaluate this integral using Monte Carlo integration with a random path ¯ X with the probability density p(¯ X) by: E fj (¯ X) p(¯ X) = Ω fj (¯ x) p(¯ x) p(¯ x)dµ(¯ x) = Ij. Each term is defined as follows.

متن کاملPath Integral Methods for Light Transport Simulation: Theory and Practice
We are witnessing a renewed research interest in robust and efficient light transport simulation based on statistical methods. This research effort is propelled by the desire to accurately render general environments with complex materials and light sources, which is often difficult with the currently employed solutions. In addition, it has been recognized that advanced methods, which are able ...
متن کاملEffect of Light Combination and Timing of Supplemental Lighting on Growth Characteristics and Flowering of Pansy (Viola × wittrockiana Rose)
The goal of this study was to examine how different light combinations and timing of supplemental lighting affect the vegetative and reproductive responses of pansy (Viola × wittrockiana Rose). The present study was designed as a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized block design with three replications and two factors of timing of supplemental lighting (night-interrupt...
متن کاملPath Space Regularization for Holistic and Robust Light Transport
We propose a simple yet powerful regularization framework for robust light transport simulation. It builds on top of existing unbiased methods and resorts to a consistent estimation using regularization only for paths which cannot be sampled in an unbiased way. To introduce as little bias as possible, we selectively regularize individual interactions along paths, and also derive the regularizat...
متن کاملA New Method of Mobile Robot Navigation: Shortest Null Space
In this paper, a new method was proposed for the navigation of a mobile robot in an unknown dynamic environment. The robot could detect only a limited radius of its surrounding with its sensors and it went on the shortest null space (SNS) toward the goal. In the case of no obstacle, SNS was a direct path from the robot to goal; however, in the presence of obstacles, SNS was a space around the r...
